Russia has rejected the 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine proposed by the Trump led US. Says "Proposed ceasefire is nothing more than temporary respite for Ukrainian forces;" they will make additional demands from the United States as Trump's henchmen arrive in Moscow to "negotiate".

US Senator Mark Kelly has visited #Ukraine. He shares insights about his trip and explains why it is in the interest of the United States to continue their support for Ukraine. I wanted to share (shortened to fit X character limitations) post by Mark Kelly with you Thank you, Sir!⤵️

"DOGE has an enthusiastic arsonist for a partner in Kennedy, who views not just vaccines but the whole modern medical-research apparatus with deep suspicion." Hey, apropos of nothing, remember the "worst day of your life *so far*" meme?

There it is! "Putin went through a hell of a lot with me. He went through a phony witch hunt." He is referring to them weathering their collusion becoming public, and now is the big payback: together until the end.

Trump says his 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada — and an additional 10% tariff on China — will take effect on March 4.  These new tariffs would cost the typical U.S. household an extra $1,200/year.  Other countries won't pay for tariffs — you will.

A quote today from the great Julia Davis. If Europe hasn’t figured out that Trump is bringing our 80-year collective security friendship, which has served us all well, to an abrupt and catastrophic end, you know it today. You are on your own. Act accordingly.

Meanwhile in Russia: Vladimir Solovyov says that the Trump administration sounds exactly like his show. He is also claiming that under Trump, America wants to be in an alliance with Russia, the same way the U.S. was an ally to the USSR in WWII. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEcU...

US Senator Roger Wicker, head of the US Senate Committee on Armed Services, commented on the talks with Putin: "No, Putin cannot be trusted. Putin is a war criminal and should be in jail for the rest of his life, if not executed."

Zelenskyy: "I will never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia about Ukraine. Never."

Quid, meet quo.

⚡️Explosion on oil tanker at Russian port prompts investigation. An explosion occurred on an oil tanker at the Ust-Luga port in northwest Russia in the morning of Feb. 9, prompting an evacuation of the crew, according to the country's Federal Agency for Sea and Inland Water Transport.

⚡️Reports have appeared that Ukrainian Defense Forces shot down a Russian KAB bomb. If confirmed, this would be the first such case. Russia uses KAB bombs on the frontlines and against Ukrainian civilians. Waiting for more information. 📷: for illustration purposes

I can see it now. First you build hotels in Gaza. Then of course you go to the Ukraine. Find nothing but the best land and rebuild. .. You can train the staff at Mar a Lago ....

As infuriating and outrageous as Trump’s latest comments on annexing Gaza are, he is a master of distraction. He deliberately throws out incendiary statements, knowing they will dominate the headlines and divert attention from his dangerous actions at play—in this case, a power grab.
